Swiss Chicken Casserole


Last night I thought I would try something new, and I loved it.
I had the Swiss cheese in my fridge since I made French Onion Soup on Sunday and I was thinking I would probably never use it. I get to work and everyday I have recipes emailed to me, and guess what was in my inbox? Swiss Chicken Casserole, I thought what are the chances of that I will try it.

I got the recipe here in case you want the original I changed it up just a little bit. http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Swiss-Chicken-Casserole-II/Detail.aspx?ms=1&prop25=24253909&prop26=DailyDish&prop27=2009-09-27&prop28=DailyRecipe&prop29=FullRecipe&me=1

Here is the recipe the way I made it.


Pre-heat oven to 350

Ingredients:

Chicken Breast
Montreal Chicken seasoning
Shredded Swiss cheese
1 can Cream of chicken soup
1/4 C of White wine
1 box of Stovetop Stuffing
3 TBS margarine

I had a package of Perdue chicken breasts (about 3 breasts)
I washed them and added Montreal Chicken Seasoning to both sides of the chicken.
I sprayed the baking dish ( it was an 11x something, and it was glass)
Added a handful of shredded Swiss cheese on top of each piece of chicken.
Mixed wine with Cream of Chicken soup, and poured on top of the chicken.
Added Savory Herb stove top in top of all of the chicken. Cut pieces of margarine and placed on top of that. Covered with aluminum foil and let that bake.

It made my kitchen smell soooo good! If you try it let me know if you liked.

My me day

Yesterday, Thursday I had the whole day off. But it was not just that I had the whole day off with NO KIDS!!!

I love my kids but it was so nice to take some time for myself. I am a little embarrassed to admit this but I spent almost 5 hours at the mall!!! I got some really good deals.

I always feel guilty when I drop off my kids like I feel like I am bothering the person that is watching them, and then I am missing them the whole time I am away. Now that they are both in school all day I felt free to enjoy myself. I have every other Thursday off since I work every other Saturday.

I do have to let you know that at Victoria's Secret they have make-up I am a Make-up addict I will take pictures of my make up closet one day it's a little too much. They have great make-up if you have never tried it I suggest you try it for yourself. At the one that I go to they have a booklet with a coupon on the back if you spend $30 save $10. They have lip gloss for $8 and lip stick around $10.00 which if you have gone to CVS you know that a tube of Lipstick will cost you about the same and this is good stuff. I heard that MAC and VS makeup are very comparable.

Back to School

It's been a while but there is a good reason. I have been getting 2 boys ready for back to school. My youngest Ryan started all day Kindergarten. He is loving every minute. He is normally not very talkative, but since he started school he has been filling me in on what he does. He loves gym and having lunch in the same cafeteria as his big brother.

I think the worst was the first day leaving him there all day . I was sure I would be getting a phone call to come pick him up but he adjusted just fine. I felt sick leaving him.

We also had some fun on Ethan's first day of school. I Left work at 3 and went to my mom's house to wait for the bus. The boys get dropped of at Grandma's house because there is always someone there. Well I started waiting for the bus at 3:30 and by 4:00 he still hadn't showed up. Ryan was with me waiting since he didn't start until the next day. While we are waiting Rob has just arrived at our house and heard the message that Ethan is on a bus and they are trying to verify where to drop him off. It's not a good feeling picturing your 8 year old on a bus especially since Ethan tends to be a nervous person. I drove to the school and as I am pulling into the school my mom called to let me know that Ethan was dropped off. WHAT A RELEIF!!!

It turns out Ethan told them they were putting him on the wrong bus but no one would listen. For 3 years he has been dropped off at teh same place. Thankfully the next day it was all set.

Anyone else have any fun back to school stories???
